Ukraine 'free to choose' German weapons for Russia advance DW 08/14/2024
Briefly

Wolfgang Buchner, spokesman for Germany's Ministry of Defense, stated that once weapons are delivered to Ukraine, the German government is no longer responsible for them. This indicates a clear boundary between German support and the operational choices made by Ukraine, emphasizing that Ukraine operates independently regarding its military strategies.
Rafael Loss observed that from a legal standpoint, Germany is not involved in Ukraine's military operations on Russian territory, provided Ukraine adheres to humanitarian law. He highlighted that as long as Ukraine does not target civilians or violate humanitarian norms, German politicians support Ukraine's use of military force as an exercise of its right to self-defense.
